"Removing hierarchy". Lol what? The instance owner is boss of the instance. Are you suggesting it's different just because here it is a totally reliable* leftist* dude in the Internet who decides what to do instead of... A random guy who owns a company?
What happens when the money runs out and you face the reality that running a platform is a business, not a hobby? As has been happening with many instances lately.
The instance owner owns the instance, but it's limited to that. That is the minimum level possible. There has to be a server somewhere. On Lemmy you can always leave for another instance or start your own. On Reddit your options are to do what the company wants or leave the entire site. You can't just log into a different server.
